Undrained Uniaxial Capacities of Suction Bucket Foundations in Rows
Volume 9: Offshore Geotechnics; Honoring Symposium for Professor Bernard Molin on Marine and Offshore Hydrodynamics, 2018Suction bucket foundations in rows, sunk by self-weight and passive suction, can be used as footings of breakwater, trestle bridge, offshore cofferdam and other structures, and they have a fine application prospect on soft soil for their advantages of good bearing capacities, simple construction, low investment, being reusable and so forth.

17.05: Advanced framework for suction bucket jacket design
ce/papers, 2017ABSTRACTThe suction bucket is a well know foundation concept from the oil and gas industry and the concept is now adopted in the foundation of jacket substructures for offshore wind turbines. The suction buckets transfer the loads from the jacket to the soil and it is essential to include the jacket‐bucket‐soil interaction.Ramboll has developed a ...

Numerical Analysis of Cluster and Monopod Suction Bucket Foundation
Volume 6: Polar and Arctic Sciences and Technology; Offshore Geotechnics; Petroleum Technology Symposium, 2013Numerical analyses were performed to study the cluster suction bucket foundation performance in comparison with the monopod suction bucket foundation. The possibility of improving the resistance performance of suction bucket foundations by using cluster configuration was studied. Clustered foundations are formed by arranging multiple bucket foundations

Volume 1: Offshore Technology; Offshore Geotechnics, 2015
This paper was developed in cooperation between the TUHH and Overdick GmbH & Co. KG. The goal of the presented work is gaining further knowledge about the installation and bearing behavior of suction bucket foundations for fixed offshore platforms based on sand. Buckets are usually made of steel and consist of a cylinder and a lid at

Installation of Bucket Foundations and Suction Caissons in Sand - Geotechnical Performance
Offshore Technology Conference, 1999Abstract This paper describes the important geotechnical principles relating to the installation of bucket foundations in dense sand, where 'suction' pressures are applied to both increase the static driving force, and more importantly, to degrade the penetration resistance. The paper will present a series of finite

On cyclic performance of suction bucket foundations in cohesionless soils
International Journal of Physical Modelling in GeotechnicsAn alternative to monopiles to support offshore wind turbines is the use of jacket structures founded on suction buckets. These foundations have been successfully deployed in recent developments and have proven to be a viable foundation concept due to their relatively fast and low-noise installation, as well as their general applicability for a wide ...

Comparison of numerical formulations for the modeling of tensile loaded suction buckets
Computers and Geotechnics, 2017The tensile resistance of a suction bucket is investigated using three different numerical formulations. The first formulation utilizes the three-field u-p-U formulation accounting for solid and fluid displacements, u and U, as well as the pore-fluid pressure, p.

Capacities and failure modes of suction bucket foundation with internal bulkheads
Journal of Ocean University of China, 2017Suction bucket foundations can be divided into four compartments by cruciform internal bulkheads, thereby yielding better capacity in certain conditions than those without internal bulkheads. As yet, no systematic study has been conducted regarding the effects of cruciform internal bulkheads on the capacities of suction bucket foundations.

Centrifuging for Penetration of Ellipse Suction Bucket of Breakwater into Clay Ground
Advances in Soil Dynamics and Foundation Engineering, 2014In order to build new offshore breakwater on weak ground, prefabricated thin-walled structures are often considered as its foundation. Integrated into a preliminary design study for a prototype breakwater to be built, a series of geotechnical centrifuge model tests are carried out to investigate the penetration behavior of a large thin-walled ellipse ...
